Custom hot keys in photoshop elements 9?

Is there any way to do this?
I dont want to have to click through all the windows everytime i want to free rotate the canvas. I'm using a wacom tablet.

Yes there are a couple of ways:
1. Windows already has a keyboard shortcut for Image>Rotate>Custom
    Press the Alt key then press the I key then press the E key then press the C key or Alt I E C
    You can find the windows shortcuts to menu commands that elements doesn't have a keyboard shortcut for by pressing the Alt key and looking at the underlines
    on the letters of the menu items.
2. You could assign the above keyboard shortcut to a pen button or exprees key on your tablet.
    Example below is assigning the shortcut to an express key on a wacom bamboo tablet:
Photoshop elements itself doesn't have a leyboard shortcut editor like the full version of photoshop does (photoshop cs6).

Validating authentication product key for Photoshop Elements 12

I have downloaded the trial version of Photoshop Elements 12, but have purchased an authentic product key which I have entered which should allow me the full version. I am being asked by messages from Adobe to verify the authentication product key whenever I open Photoshop Elements 12. Unfortunately when I click on the tab, it will not open and allow me to enter the product key. I have 5 days left in which to validate. Any help will be much appreciated.

Unfortunately, only Adobe customer service can assist you with your issue. These are user forums; you are not addressing Adobe here.

Adding Custom Hot Keys, not Keyboard Shortcuts

So, I've gone online and done some research but I can't seem to find anything on creating custom, universal hot keys. Everything seems to be about keyboard shortcuts, which are great within the applications, but I'm looking to create Hot Keys that launch applications or folders.
For example, in Quicksilver (which is no longer working for some reason) I had a trigger to open my Applications folder set at "controlshiftA" one for my documents folder at "controlshiftD" and one to launch Safari at "controlshiftZ" but I can't seem to set this up without some sort of app launcher.
I also don't want to use an app launcher because the additional engine it uses just clogs up my resources and increases my start-up time by about a minute....

You can't. You need an application launcher for those tasks.
I also don't want to use an app launcher because the additional engine it uses just clogs up my resources and increases my start-up time by about a minute....
as I said there is no way around that. either you use an application launcher or you won't have that functionality. 1 minute extra startup time sounds way too much. I use Butler, not quicksilver but I know for sure it only adds a few seconds and consumes very few resources when it runs. I suspect it's the same way with Quicksilver.

Why does my serial key for Photoshop Elements 7 not work?

I purchased Elements 7 about 4 years ago and am trying to install it on my new computer so I have a basic form of Photoshop until I get a new form of it. Why will my serial code that came with the software not work? I've even copied it directly from my Products and Services account page.

Customizing F-keys in photoshop 7

I have been able in previous versions of photoshop to customize F-keys so that I could make crops, change dimensions, etc. much faster.
I cannot find a way to do it in photoshop 7 nor was I able to find anything about it either in photoshop help, or in adobe support.
Can someone help me?
Thank you,

Barbara,
This has to do with your response to my other message regarding the following:.
Hi Barbara,
I can see in "my stuff" that there are 1 "correct" answer and 2 "helpful" answers available but I don't see a way to get to them.
Can you help?
Thank you,
You wrote:
"When you look at a thread you started, each response should have a button for helpful or solved. Just click the one you want and wade through the ensuing "are you sure?" dialog boxes."
Thanks, but either I'm dumb or can't understand English any longer.
The whole thing sounds rather cryptic to me: no "buttons" I see (see screenshot) take me anywhere.
I need more help, would appreciate it greatly.
Thanks again,

Can I build custom hot keys?

I am grateful that Pages '09 has tiered lists. I see where I can assign Fkey's (F1-F9) to different styles. My question is can I go one step farther, into contentment, and assign key combinations that are designed by me and work for me? For instance, if I want to assign commandoption1 to format heading 1 can I do it? (and so on and so on down to commandoption7 for heading 7)
thanks in advance for any time and attention to this matter,
kadso

Creation of Custom Templates Premiere 4.0/Photoshop Elements 6.0

Premiere Elements 4.0 user manual says:
"You can also create custom templates in Adobe Photoshop Elements, and add them to the Adobe Premiere Elements template choices."
When I open an exiting template in Photoshop 6.0, layer sets are locked so the only change that I can do is text font.
How to create a new template?
How to edit an existing template?

Well, you can't create a custom menu template, but you can take an existing template, swap out the background with a custom still or video and customize the text with your own fonts, colors and positions -- essentially creating a custom DVD menu.
My Steve's Tips article "Creating DVD Menus in Premiere Elements" walks you through the process.

Custom Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 deployment error

I am working on developing a custom MSI to deploy Photoshop Elements 8.0 in our company and I am getting the following error message:
Install adobe photoshop elements 8.0 using the setup.exe in the root folder
I was hoping someone could assist me with finding the correct property to add to the MSI (using Orca) so that I can get past this error and continue with the installation/deployment.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Robert

Thank you for the reply, Ankush.
The idea of installing from the .msi file is to make the installation universal. If we create a custom .mst file to run with the "Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0.msi" file, it can be configured to automatically use the language selection previously configured in the Windows operating system. This makes it much easier to develope for our sites around the globe.
I will try and contact the Support Team you have suggested.
Thank you

Hi Christoph and WarriorAnt,
Thank you both for the replies.
I don't know anything about GarageBand because I've never used it. I've never used any music software before, (other than iTunes, Ha!)
I don't have GarageBand on my Mac because it wasn't stock on the old Powerbook G4, so I would have to buy it. I'm happy to do that if I can figure out that it does what I want ... but I'm overwhelmed by the info at Apple's site. Too much for a beginner like me. Even the wikipedia.com entry for GB uses too many terms I don't know, so I'm easily lost.
I just want to be able to set up drum loops and play along with them. The main thing is that I'm able to use third party loops. There are so many really amazing loop products out there ... jungle drums, acoustic jazz drums, lounge, etc. I don't want to get caught up in anything proprietary (like Band-In-A-Box) because the selection is limited. I'm sure GarageBands loops are great, but I want access to all these other third party loops as well ... loops that were not specifically made for GarageBand.
Will GarageBand let me drop in any and all drum loops from these other companies?
And does GarageBand work like a basic sequencer, where I can program up an intro, X number of measures of a loop, then a turnaround, then a variation loop, then an ending, etc?
I know the high-end stuff like Native Instruments Kontakt does this, but unfortunately it also does a kazillion other professional-level things I will never need and don't want to pay for (and which make the software more complex and daunting).
Thank you again, both of you, for responding and helping me with this project.
Just a little more advice on those two questions would really go a long way.

Installing free trial of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8

I have a PowerPC G4, 10.5.8. I tried to download the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 (to check before I buy), and this is the message I get:
"System Check The minimum system requirements listed below are needed to run Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and are not met:
This product does not support PowerPC architecture CPU. Please upgrade or adjust your system to meet these requirements."
I have no idea what this means or what to do about it. Can this be solved? Does this mean I am not compatible with this app?

Okay, I'm looking at Photoshop Elements 6 Amazon and one of the customer reviews says this: "Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac will not install if your hard drive is formatted using Case Sensitive Journaled HFS+. This requirement is not mentioned in the Elements 6 documentation.
The current fix is to reformat your hard drive using non-case sensitive HFS+. Mac users who need the case sensitive drive format are out of luck with Elements 6 at this time.
You can check how your hard drive is formatted by looking in ->About this Mac->More Info->Hardware->Serial-ATA (if you are using a MacBook Pro)."
I have no idea what this means. And checking my system profiler doesn't tell me anything, or at least I don't understand what it's saying.
Also, re: GIMP - it says on the site: "Running GIMP on Mac OS X requires Apple's X11 environment. It is included on the "Optional Installs" package on the OS X install disk."
I don't know what this means either, and I don't have the install disks, as my friend upgraded me and didn't give me his disks. I'm sorry I seem so stupid, but i'm really at a loss with all of this. Thanks for everyone's help.

How do I activate Photoshop Elements 10 even though the latest version is version 12.

I have an unused key for Photoshop Elements 10 that I want to use.

if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-10-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com

Has you contacted the seller through its Customer Service?
If that is the case and Customer Service has no idea of what you were given as a Product Key and how to use it, have you considered asking
your question in the seller's forum (PC software section)?
But, I have another idea for you to try first....are you involved in a student teacher purchase with prepaid card? If so, please click on the following link
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number-student-teacher.html#card-sub mit-product-code
and go to the section on "I received a prepaid card, and I need help". In that section go to "2" which is for
"Submitting my product code and proof of eligibility to Adobe". You will notice there is a link to click on that
is related to country. Make the appropriate choice and see if that solves the problem. You should see
Visit the page listed on the back of your prepaid card to submit your code and proof.
For customers inside North America, www.adobe.com/go/edu-validate
For customers outside North America, submit through your region's customer portal below:
Europe, Middle East, Africa | Germany | France | Spain | Italy | Netherlands | Czech Republic | Poland | Asia/Pacific | Korea
Verification can take anywhere from 2 to 30 days to validate.
If the above does not apply to you, then I would explore the seller forum for answers if you cannot get them from Adobe Chat or the seller's
Customer Service. Getting your money back from the seller should be tried as soon as possible if you find no solution.
Thank you.

Photoshop Elements 8 key from CD not valid for windows 8, anyway I can convert it to (a photoshop elements 8 key) that is?

Hello!
I tried to reinstall Photoshop Elements 8 on my computer but I did not have the CD so I used the online installer. This turned out to be a mistake and the installer didn't recognize my valid key!
I confirmed it was valid with customer support and they told me that my key was only valid up to windows 7! Crazy! Is there anyway I can get an elements 8 key that is valid for windows 8?

If customer support couldn't provide you with a valid key for your system there isn't much else you can do. No one here has any ability to provide one.
Personally, I never heard that serial numbers are OS-specific. I know that older software versions are less likely to install/run on newer systems, but never heard of a key not being valid only up to a certain OS version.
